Reviews of the 2009 Dodge Ram 1500 Laramie Crew Cab
-
CNET Review
The Good: The 2009 Dodge Ram 1500 packs an impressive amount of tech in the cabin and under the hood. Satellite TV is an industry first. UConnect digital-media receiver has a 30GB hard drive and supports ripping music from CDs and USB devices.
The Bad: A big truck plus a big engine equals low fuel economy. Throttle responsiveness is lacking. Cabin tech interface needs polish. No iPod support from the UConnect's USB port.
The Bottom Line: The 2009 Dodge Ram 1500 Laramie managed to surprise us with its excellent performance and handling, as well as its well-appointed cabin and tech. This is definitely a great option for the sophisticated truck buyer.
